Cuba's nickel industry, damaged by Hurricane Ike a week ago, has resumed some production, state-run media said Sunday, quoting basic industry Minister Yadira Garcia on a tour of the plants and mines.

Garcia said the state-owned Pedro Sotto Alba plant in Moa Holguin was operating and another state-owned plant in Nicaro Holguin was preparing to open.
Garcia said the joint venture Ernesto Che Guevara plant with Canadian company Sherritt International (S.TO: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) in Moa Holguin had suffered the greatest damage and gave no date for a start-up there.
